WEDNESDAY NIGHT BIBLE STUDY

Genesis 28:11-15 Jacob dreamed a ladder came down from heaven with angels going up and down to minister for the Lord. The Lord stood above the ladder and told Jacob. Your descendent a shall be as the dust of the earth. The land would belong to them from east to west to north to south. And I will bring you back into the land and be with you until this is accomplished.
Jacob took the stone and made an altar. Poured oil over it and called the place Bethel ( house of God)
We need to trust God not men. Or ourselves. Jacob learned that God would be with him always.
His mother conspired with him for the birthright. They deceived Isaac and Esau. Esau vowed to kill Jacob. So Jacob had to leave home and go live with uncle Laban.
On his way, he had a dream of angels going up and down a ladder from heaven. God revealed Himself to Jacob there. And gave him the promise of inheritance of the land for him and his numberless descendants. Back in the land forever. God with him forever!
God is always with us. He never leaves. He hears every word. Sees every action. Forgives every confessed sin. Blesses us and brings us to Glory when our race is run. GLORY TO GOD!
